I'm a Weirdo
The Lonely Island Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm a weirdo, yeah I'm a weirdo
People looking at me crazy, I don't care though
I'm a weirdo, w-w-weirdo
Ask me if I give a fuck, I say fuck no
I say fuck no, I say fuck no
Ask me if I give a fuck, I say fuck no

I'm a weirdo not a hero
Had a psych eval didn't clear, though
Ergo I say ear-go
Cut my ear off, now I can't hear stereo
If that makes me weird, I'm weird
I use a Mach-3 razor on my beard
I use a Mach-10 razor down down here
Seven more blades cause I like it sheer
Use a banana as a telephone
Use a banana as a telephone
Use a banana as a telephone
Spoon in my ear cause my brain's made of gelatone
Latin girls say "turn up the Reggaeton"
But it's me in a wig, mind is hella gone
"Ay papi, you crazy"
Yeah I'm crazy for driving Miss Daisy
Best picture, must be doing something right
Chicken bit off my dick at a cockfight
Sewed it back on sitting at a stoplight
Bit a cop, got a ticket for a cock bite
I'm demented and deranged, motherfucker
Choose the middle seat on a plane, motherfucker
Just wrong like a dog in Ray-Bans
Piss off the roof, you could call me Rain Man
Best picture, must be doing something right
Fuck, I'm repeating myself, man, I'm not right

I'm a weirdo, yeah I'm a weirdo
People looking at me crazy, I don't care though
I'm a weirdo, w-w-weirdo
Ask me if I give a fuck, I say fuck no
I say fuck no, I say fuck no




Ask me if I give a fuck, I say fuck no
Ask me if I give a fuck, I say fuck no

Overall Meaning

The Lonely Island's song I'm a Weirdo is a satirical take on the concept of 'weirdness' in society. The lyrics tell the story of a character who is unapologetically strange and does not care what others think of him. The chorus, "I'm a weirdo, yeah I'm a weirdo, people looking at me crazy, I don't care though", emphasizes the character's indifference to judgment and his unique self-expression. The line, "Had a psych eval didn't clear, though", suggests that the character may have some mental health challenges, contributing to his eccentricity. The lyrics also poke fun at societal norms through lines such as "Use a banana as a telephone" and "Choose the middle seat on a plane, motherfucker".


The song ultimately highlights the idea that society often tries to put people into boxes, categorizing them as 'normal' or 'weird', and those who do not fit into those boxes are often marginalized. Through the character's self-acceptance and humor, the song encourages listeners to embrace their own quirks and differences.
